Overview

vildagliptin + vitamin D is a combination therapy investigated for the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It consists of vildagliptin, a small molecule dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, and vitamin D. Vildagliptin works by preventing the degradation of incretin hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), which enhances insulin secretion and improves glycemic control. Vitamin D is included to potentially improve insulin sensitivity, lipid metabolism, and reduce liver inflammation and fibrosis. The combination was studied by Ziv Hospital in a Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT01083992) involving patients with NAFLD to evaluate its impact on liver histopathology and metabolic markers.
